To make it easier for a registrar to tell whether or not a domain is
being given premium pricing (as opposed to some pricing tier), I would
suggest the following change regarding the <fee:class> element in §3.7:

    If the domain is being charged at the standard fee, then the
    reserved fee class 'standard' class MUST be used. Omitting the
    <fee:class> element indicates that the domain is subject to bespoke
    pricing.

I'm open to ideas on this change. My main reason for suggesting this is
to ensure that for domains subject to standard pricing, there's a single
standard mechanism for indicating this. I tried formulating it in such a
way as to minimise potential incompatibility with existing
implementations. I also wanted to clarify what omitting the <fee:class>
element might mean, as this is left undefined and could mean anything.
